Quadratic gravity with propagating torsion and asymptotic freedom

Abstract We consider a class of metric-affine gravitational theories with action quadratic in curvature and torsion tensors. Using the heat kernel technique, we compute the torsion contributions to the one-loop counterterms in the ultraviolet limit. It is found that vectorial and axial components of...
